Introducing Monday's Bookishly Beautiful

Last Friday I came across some beautiful and fanciful pictures of books. I decided then that I wanted to share them. As I thought about the pictures over the weekend, and the post that would accompany them, I decided I wanted to turn this into a weekly meme. Who couldn't use a book lift-me-up on Monday mornings? This meme will consist of anything related to books that could also be considered beautiful, art, or uplifting. It could include pictures, quotes, book covers that caught your eye, products that celebrate books, beautiful locations that promote books, or anything else pertaining to books that brightens your day. We all see something different as beautiful which will make this meme a real joy to peruse through as you and others in the blogging community join in. Please link back to A Library of our Own and leave a comment with the link to your post. Thank you and I can't wait to see all of your Monday's Bookishly Beautiful posts!

I came across these pictures on a post at Brain Pickings. They caught my attention and imagination immediately. These pictures were taken by Joel Robinson . Without further ado, here are the pictures. I will let them speak for themselves.

So, what do think? Do you have a favorite? I'd love to hear your opinions! Until next Monday!

About Me

I am a 38yo married, retired paramedic, turned SAHM/compulsive book reader. I have three children. One grown non-reader, much to my dismay, and two pre-school age children. I enjoy reading with my children and reading to escape my children :). I wouldn't mind reading to our two cats but they seem to prefer to eat the books than to listen to them! Among my other interests are cooking, going to the theater, trying a wonderful new restaurant, travel, and crocheting the occasional afghan.
